I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'main point' is the definition.
'centre' can be an answer for 'point' (centre is a kind of point). I am unsure of the 'main' bit.

'of a recent report' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'CENTRE' can be found hidden inside 'recent report'.

Can you help me to learn more?
